 - Pace requires GCC > 9.2, MPI, and Python 3.8 on your system, and CUDA is required to run with a GPU backend.
-You will also need the headers of the boost libraries in your `$PATH` (boost itself does not need to be installed).
-If installed outside the standard header locations, gt4py requires that `$BOOST_ROOT` be set:
-
-```bash
-cd BOOST/ROOT
-wget https://boostorg.jfrog.io/artifactory/main/release/1.79.0/source/boost_1_79_0.tar.gz
-tar -xzf boost_1_79_0.tar.gz
-mkdir -p boost_1_79_0/include
-mv boost_1_79_0/boost boost_1_79_0/include/
-export BOOST_ROOT=BOOST/ROOT/boost_1_79_0
-```
-
 - We recommend creating a python `venv` or conda environment specifically for Pace.
